Hi guys,

I don't tend to keep this thread up when carving, but I thought I'd at least put my better ones here so far. Our carvings for this year are here:

I'll post a few pretty cool ones so far though.

Tron - I was going for a digital feel with the background, I think it turned out fairly well:

Your son and nephew obviously also have skilz. I liked this one too:

I guess I'll just pour acid on my pumpkin and smash it with a sledge hammer. That's my only hope.

Nicely done sfam.

What about carving gentrifiers, yups and transplants? Can you carve them too?

There's probably some FBI serial killer profiling program that scans the web for posts like that.

Why would the FBI waste their time scanning the web for a thread about pumpkins?

Do you remember Samuel Sheinbein from back in the day?
I once traveled on a Greyhound bus from Maryland To New York City with some of his friends from school about a year or so after Samuel fled the country.
They were a very rowdy and disorderly bunch.
The bus driver stopped the bus several times during the trip and threatened to throw all of us off of the bus.
This obviously created tension between them and the driver.
I seriously thought they were going to attack the bus driver from behind while he was driving and beat the crap out of him.
Luckily we arrived safe and sound at our destination without anybody on the bus getting stabbed.
I am certain every single one of his Samuel's friends had knives on them.
Anyway, from what I have heard, there is a possibility Samuel may be released from prison as early as next year.

Ho... ly... crap. I just read the wiki. At first I was going to make a joke about gentrification but now I'm too disturbed.

Drunk on a Greyhound bus, armed with a knife. Oh, to be young again.

I was not a part of their crew or gang.
I just by chance happened to be traveling on the same bus with them.
I assure you, once we arrived in New York City, they went their way and I went my way.
This occurred 14 years ago but I remember it like it was yesterday.

I am older than all of them.
I am older than Sam and I was older than all of the teenagers who were on the bus.
At the time I looked young (I still do) and since the bus driver was black and the teenagers on the bus were Jewish, he probably thought I was with their group but I was not.
